I'd like to see new juices released in groups, rather than individually. I don't know the expense breakdowns for Clark, but I would imagine that it may help shipping and packaging costs and with workflow efficiency by shipping multiple bottles out together, rather than multiple individual orders. It would also help us with shipping costs, as well.

But then again, I may be in the minority of customers who will order just about any new flavor released so it may not be a big deal overall.

This is fantastic feedback. When we release new flavors, it's usually dictated by time and other business demands. Example: With PBC, it was slow, and I had a rock-star recipe I wanted to release, so we mixed it on the quick and put it on the site. Kinda paying the price now because it's not fully pre-steeped (like the rest of the product line).

The short-runs cause small "bursts" in business... releasing several at once gets overwhelming for the team because orders stack up like crazy. I think its a good suggestion to get some regularity in the release schedule. The problem: advance notice inevitably results in orders just "stopping" in anticipation of a release. Ideally, the orders would stay relatively consistent so we can keep these fellas busy 5 days a week. We're still working out the finer points around the short run releases - I really appreciate you voicing your concern about the "hot and heavy" pace of short-run releases brother.

Great explanation! Can't fix what's not broken, right?

What about this suggestion -- although, this seems like it wouldn't match your "style" -- what if you only opened up SR flavors to existing customers who meet a certain criteria (e.g. last order was within the past 3 months or customers whose order history totals X (100) mL, etc...). I don't know if your database is capable of easily tracking that information, but that might help keep orders more regular.

Conspiracy theory is simpler and more believable. :D

Make a real Coconut jealous :)

I have an infatuation with round things, so this may be in the near future. LOL

I actually have a straight up coconut vape called Comfortably Coconut. I did a 1 off bottle for Lex and she wasn't a fan, and it didn't sell well when it was on the site (mostly because it was overshadowed by a bunch of superstars). That said, I have a Mounds bar that is delicious. hehe

How about a honey flavor? I'd love a variation on H1N1 with a hit of honey or maybe honey in place of the caramel. If not, maybe something like a honey nut bar. I don't see a lot of this kind of eliquid so it may be difficult to pull off or it could just have a limited market.

Another idea, have you ever eaten Walnettos? That could be another knock out flavor.

So it seems everyone wants to try a coffee flavor, and you are the man when it comes to anything vanilla flavored. Maybe a french vanilla cappuccino?

Straight up coffee was, eh - a very special lady will receive a bottle soon, I need her feedback. Other than that, I've been thinking the mocha direction... as much as I dislike working with chocolate, coffee/chocolate might play very well.

MAN! If you could do like a cinnamon roll, or something like say, a cinnamon danish, I bet I could vape on that for 2 days straight. :)

My Grandma used to make these cinnamon danish's, and let me tell you, Grandma's Cinnamon Danish was always the best. I would switch it up and eat some other foods sometimes, she used to make these crazy fruit smoothies or Peanut Butter Cookies, but nothing tasted like her cinnamon danish. They were such quality, you could tell how much work she put into them.

Cheers Clark, cheers. :toast:
